I have a really weird problem.

When i try to run my program it says:
Variable 'Global' name is not valid at line 9

But there is not even any Global Variable or anything in line 9. The line doesnt even contain any variable stuff

Sometimes the line numbers are wrong look at lines 6 thru 12. Its another bug.

[edit] I meant the line numbers being wrong is a bug not your problem.

Have you named a variable "Global"? its a reserved word so it will bring up an error if you try to use it as a variable.

Put the commands on different lines. DBPro has problems sometimes with multi-command lines.
